I'm trying to connect to my company with a script. I am able to dial fine, but when the response info comes back, it's all jumbled... I'm assuming that I am not setting the terminal to ANSI or something to that degree... Any help on what commands I am supposed to send would be greatly appreciated... Thanks in advance.

Here is a list of things to check before the terminal emulation. You will have to know the settings of the host system.

Baud Rate
Data Bits
Parity
Stop Bits

If you match these and you still have bad characters, try changing the terminal settings.
I would try 4410, VT100 and ANSIBBS and see which one works best.

You could do set/fetch statements in Aspect for these settings, but it would be easier to create a Connection Directory entry for the connection and change them there (especially while you are testing different settings).
